Chapter 109 David did not have to wait too long at the entrance of South River International Residence before Wayne
and Gavin arrived in the G-Wagon.
David gave Wayne a location once he got into the car and Wayne immediately set the GPS.
David’s hometown was in South River Province as well, it was just that it was a rural county five to six
hundred kilometers away.
He should be able to arrive in the morning if he set off now.
Amelia took more than half an hour in the bathroom before she walked out with a sway to her hips. She
knew she was about to experience an important moment in her life.
Amelia wrapped a towel around herself when she walked out, her hair still wet, which accentuated her
figure. She looked very appealing, and the sight could easily make youthful men nosebleed.
It was a shame that David had already left and could not take in such a pleasing sight.
Amelia did not see David when she walked out. Thinking that David had gone upstairs, she sat on the
sofa to wait for him.
David still had not appeared after a while, and out of boredom, she took her phone out. Only then did she
see the two messages David sent her.
Amelia was stunned the moment she read David’s messages. Then she left out a soft snort.
‘David ran away?
‘Something happened at home?
‘As if I’d believe that!
‘Isn’t it too late for something to happen right now?
Just as she thought, David was not an easy man.
Not that she was an easy woman either. After all, she was still a virgin.
She was just trying to pursue her own happiness now that she met someone she liked.
Amelia relaxed now that David had left, and started to walk around aimlessly, admiring the house she
was in.

She had been too nervous to look around when she first arrived, but now that she had calmed down, she
took in the design of the house.
She had never seen a house so extravagant, not even on the internet.
Amelia stood before the huge floor-to-ceiling windows and admired the night view of the River Leeds. It
felt unreal.
Amelia admired the view a little longer and took a few pictures with her phone before she went upstairs t
o the 28th floor.
‘There’s a private pool?’
The ceiling above the pool was made with glass, meaning that you could see the twinkling stars in the
night sky just by looking up.
She wondered how it would feel to lie in the pool and look up at the stars.
Hence, she went and did it.
Amelia grabbed an air mattress by the pool and placed it on the water, then she laid on top of it. The
mattress slowly floated into the middle of the pool, and she laid atop it staring at the stars above.
It would be perfect if David was here hugging her; Perhaps they could share a bottle of red wine as well.
Amelia looked down at the towel she wrapped around herself and took it off.
‘How could David have the heart to leave in face of such an alluring body?’ She wondered to herself,’
What a boring man.’
At the same time, David was currently rushing to Aunt Sally’s house.
Aunt Sally’s injury was a big deal. Even though it wasn’t serious, David still felt guilty, especially since
she was injured when collecting money for him.
It was already six in the morning by the time David arrived in Shu City.
He took a small nap in the early morning, while Wayne and Gavin took turns driving.
David took the steering wheel once they arrived at Shu City since Wayne and Gavin were not familiar
with the roads and they would arrive much quicker if David drove.
After arriving at the lobby of Aunt Sally’s residence, David had Wayne and Gavin wait in the car while he
went up himself.
Lily was the one who opened the door; David had already informed her of his arrival when he arrived in
Shu City
“Come in, Dave!”
“How is it? Where’s Aunt Sally? Where’s Jacey?” David asked.
“Inside. My dad’s keeping watch over Jace, making sure that he doesn’t go and look for Quin.”
David immediately saw Uncle Yousef sitting on the sofa watching television once he entered the house.
“Uncle Yousef!” David greeted with a shout.
“You’re here, Dave! Go check on your Aunt Sally! Seriously, she’s not young anymore, why did she even
go and argue with other people? See? Now she’s bedridden!” Yousef said..
Uncle Yousef was a clerk, so he was very reliable and could remain calm even when trouble occurred.
He might not have been the best to David, but he had never treated David badly during the two years he
spend here.
‘Bedridden?
“I thought Lily said she would recover after a few days of rest!
Just how severe was she injured to become bedridden?’
David immediately rushed to Aunt Sally’s room, only to find her lying on the bed, asleep.
Not wanting to disrupt her sleep, David closed the door softly and left.
He went back to the living room to sit with Uncle Yousef and Lily.
“What happened, Uncle Yousef?” David asked.
Yousef then told David what happened.
It was not too far from what David had guessed.
David was owed around two million worth of compensation for his parent’s incident.
David had not even turned ten years old yet at the time of their passing, so the money was given to his
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmnew guardians for safe keeping.
In the end, David decided to follow his uncle Bobby. However, there was an issue with the compensation
money and his uncle Bobby stressed that he would only hand the money back to David when David
turned eighteen.
However, neither David’s Aunt Sally nor Aunt Diana believed Uncle Bobby, so they wrote up an
agreement and gave the agreement to Aunt Sally.
David’s life with Bobby took a sharp downturn after the latter received the compensation, and David’s life
only got better once he moved to live with his Aunt Sally in high
David was already twenty-one now, he was about to graduate university, yet Bobby showed no signs of
returning the money to him.
Thus, when Aunt Sally took the agreement and went to look for David’s uncle, Bobby, she told Bobby
that she would file a suit against him if he did not pay David back.
In the end, David’s Aunt Sally ended up getting into an argument with his Aunt Karen, and when Quin
returned home and saw what happened, he decided to help his mom and pushed Sally twice. Then,
Sally fell and hurt her back.
Sally’s back was already fragile, and she twisted it after Quin pushed her down. It was going to take
around half a month before she could fully recover.
“Where’s Jacey?” David asked again.
“He kept saying how he was going to go look for Quin to take revenge for his mom when he woke up this
morning, but I stopped him from leaving. So he locked himself angrily in his room,” Yousef replied.
“I’ll deal with this, Uncle Yousef. Don’t worry, I’ll get justice for Aunt Sally.”
“Do not resort to violence, Dave. If they’re not willing to listen to reason, then we’ll protect ourselves with
the law. Do not act rashlv, understood?”
“I understand, Uncle Yousef. I’ll go check on Jace.”
David then walked over to Jacey’s bedroom.
This used to be his bedroom too. Aunt Sally lived in a three-bedroom apartment, so he spent the two
years in this house rooming with Jacey. They were pretty close.
